We are a friendly couple originally from the UK but have been calling NZ home for the last few years. Looking to explore more of the country via housesitting!

favoriteWhy we love house sitting

The opportunity to experience new neighbourhoods and areas whilst often getting to look after lovely pets!

Hi, we are Luke(32) and Claire(30) who moved from the UK to Auckland a few years ago and fell in love with New Zealand. We are now looking to explore more of the country whilst looking after some furry friends and lovely homes.

We both grew up with cats and absolutely love homes with a feline friend. We are also very comfortable with dogs and have looked after friends canine friends in the past. Luke in particular is very green fingered and can help maintain gardens and house plants - he has a knack for growing giant house plants!

We are both professionals who have been chipping away at our careers for the last 7+ years. Outside of work we love cooking, hiking, travelling, reading and spending time with friends.

We are responsible, clean and tidy and would treat your homes with the utmost respect!

We hope to meet you soon!

We have both grown up with cats and Luke grew up with chickens also. We have looked after family and friends cats on multiple occasions and love doing so! We looked after a family’s cats in Christchurch last summer

Review

Claire & Luke did a fantastic job of house sitting and looking after our 2 greyhounds for 17 days while we were abroad. We had total peace of mind while away as their communication was excellent & both the house and dogs were looked after very well. I would absolutely recommend them to any potential people needing a reliable house sitter.
Peace of Mind

Happy you!

With a house sitter looking after your pets, house and garden - you can really relax. Happy days.
